Emery hails Sevilla's solidarity

Sevilla manager Unai Emery has praised his side's solidarity following their penalty shootout victory over Benfica in the Europa League final.

The Spanish coach was quick to applaud his players for the way they shrugged off their fatigue after extra time yielded no goals, and clinched the trophy on spot kicks.

"Benfica are a great team," he told Cuatro. "At the end of extra time we were tired but we've learned how to cope through suffering with solidarity. This title is down to so many people."

Sevilla saw off their Portuguese opponents 4-2 on penalties after Benfica's Oscar Cardoza and Rodrigo missed from 12 yards.
